It looks like iPhone users aren’t the only ones getting some love on the software update front. We just got word that Q 9h users have a freshly-updated version of BlackBerry connect ready and waiting to go. Of course BlackBerry Connect allows users of non-BlackBerry hardware to make use of hosted or corporate BlackBerry email services. You know, the service that Nokia recently ditched. Here’s the official word along with instructions on how to snag the update:

A new version of the BlackBerry Connect software for the Motorola Q9H is now available. Users can download BlackBerry Connect software, desktop software, and documentation to their computer, and install the new version of BlackBerry Connect on to their device. Customers can also download and install the BlackBerry Connect software directly from their Motorola Q9H. (Note: for devices running Windows Mobile 6.1 you can use the Get BlackBerry Connect shortcut on the Start Menu->IM & Email folder. For devices running Windows Mobile 6.0, please enter the following URL into the browser: (http://www.motorola.com/us/Q9h/BlackBerryConnect)

[Thanks, Christopher]

    I dropped my curve one too many times and my company will only replace with another curve, can’t get the 8820. Maybe I’ll pick one of these up on eBay and try my blackberry fix through this. Anyone care to share their experiences with BlackBerry Connect?

    Jeff, blackberry connect = garbage.

    Also, curve > 88xx

    I’ve used BBC on multiple devices without any problems, including the Q9h.

    And I’d take the 8820 over the Curve any day.

    Too bad you can’t you couldn’t get the Bold.

    Yeah, Bold is a no go, unless its out of my own pocket. The 88xx is a bit more sturdy than the 8310 imo. I actually like the keyboard better too. Ah well, I guess a used Q9h or 8800 for me. Go sox.

    Does this only work for AT&T?
    I have a Q9H on Rogers and was hoping it was compatible.
